Sharks Celebrate 25 Years, Unveil New Logo
It was announced today by the San Jose Sharks, that June 29, 2015 marks the 25th anniversary of the day the Sharks franchise was founded. To celebrate, the Sharks will feature several new logos on their uniforms, as well as a few heritage jersey nights where the sharks will wear throwback uniforms for the first time in franchise history.
Terry Smith, the designer of the Sharks first logo and jersey, will be the one creating the "Heritage Jersey." According to Smith, "The Heritage Jersey represents the present of the Sharks franchise while paying stark homage to its past." The Heritage Jersey, along with the game schedule of when it will be worn, will be unveiled at a later date.
The new logos will be worn on all jerseys this year. Here is a taste of the new look:
